REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBMITTED TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBMITTED BY: Oliver Chi, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Travis K. Hopkins, Assistant City Manager
Subject:
title
Approve and authorize the execution of a Professional Services Agreement with Revize to Redesign and Maintain the City's Website; and authorize appropriation of funds
body
Statement of Issue:
Staff released a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) from firms to redesign and maintain the City's website. After reviewing twenty proposals, staff selected Revize as the most qualified and responsive firm. Staff recommends entering into a Professional Services Agreement (agreement) with Revize for a not-to-exceed total of $170,000 over a 3-year term.
Financial Impact:
Revize's proposed scope of work under this three-year agreement is estimated at $102,300, which includes website redesign, staff training, and annual maintenance fees. Due to the outdated functionality of the City's website, staff may request additional improvements that go above and beyond Revize's scope of work. As such, staff has built in contingencies throughout the term of the agreement, with a total not-to-exceed value of $170,000.
Funding is available for the website redesign and maintenance effort, and City Council authorization is requested to appropriate an additional $75,000 to the Public Information Office account (10030101.69365), with the remainder of the funding available prior approved amounts in the City Manager (10030101.69365) and Public Information Office accounts (10030101.69365).
Recommended Action
recommendation
A) Approve a three-year Professional Services Agreement with Revize for website redesign and annual maintenance; and,
B) Authorize the appropriation of $75,000 from the General Fund into the Public Information Office account.
